OER Publication: PLOS

Whew…it’s been a busy few months and this blog has been on my mind.  So, here’s a quick resource for online science oriented publications.  The Public Library of Science, better known as PLOS, describes itself as “a nonprofit publisher and advocacy organization located in San Francisco, CA, USA and Cambridge, UK.  Our mission is to accelerate progress in science and medicine by leading a transformation in research communication. Everything that we publish is Open-Access – freely available online for anyone to use and we maximize the value of this resource through technology.”  They have a variety of peer-reviewed publications across all areas of science and medicine.  
This is another excellent opportunity to provide students free and open resources that are high quality and up to date.  Are you currently using other great resources?  Let us know!
Wishing everyone a happy and healthy holiday season!
